Rocket MultiValue

Just wondering whether there should be an 'SB/XA' tag for this forum?#SB/XA​​

Hi,I'm fairly new to MVIS and I'm planning to enable Okta based authentication for all incoming request to my UV (v11.3.1) . This authentication method will be a token based authentication where a user will submit "client id" and "client secret" to generate a token (valid for a day) , which will be used to get the details from my UV files.I can see an option as "HTTP" authentication in MVIS with option as "OAuth"  but it only allows a filepath to be entered, which may not work with dynamic tokens.Has someone implemented a similar Okta based Authentication with MVIS and can share some thoughts on how to achieve token based authentication.Thanks,Amarendra

Hi All Assuming I have appropriate permissions on the file system can anyone tell me if it is possible to copy/move from a UNIBASIC program?I have explored READBLK and WRITEBLK but the file always seems to be corrupt after writing.Example scenario; move/copy a word doc or PDF file from one directory to another.Alternatively is there a way to shell execute a command to the local server or execute a powershell command etc.Thanks In AdvanceAaron

Hi Can you backup only the data portion of a file with uvbackup?Regards,Thando

hi vscode users,I'll share a strange behavior with rocket-mvbasic 1.1.0, where the java runtime goes cpu high and really slow.The context of runtime is special - totaly isolated.On a client site, we have a  server dedicated to development and running windowsTerminal sessions where we develop with vscode / rocket-mvbasic extension. The server and our RDP sessions are not authorized to internetWe are not authorized to extract the code outside the client's server. When coding I note a high usage of cpu (17% ) by java running rocket-mvbasic. I note the extension respond really slowly - not at all, colorization is 'late' , code formatting is delayed 30sec to repond ... I'll join a  dump of the java process. windows dump java process (shared by onedrive)here the vscode/extension log vscode log (shared onedrive)Is anyone who share these bad experience ?

UniData 8.2.2Hi All,Does anyone know if Rocket have recently changed the key length for the SAVEDLISTS file? On older versions I had no issues saving keys like -TRAWL*LAZ.PROGS*197609I know about the potential 000-999 issue when the OS tags the chunk numbers onto the end of the key, but I could at least save the list. Now, the response I get from the system is - can not open file: 'SAVEDLISTSTRAWL*LAZ.PROGS*197609I tried tagging some alphas onto the end of the key to get around the numeric chunking clash, but it didn't make any difference. If I hardcode the list key to 'BOB', it saves the list as BOB000 just fine.I don't really want to reduce the length of the key because I want to keep it unique and also visibly descriptive. ThanksLeon

Hi Everyone,I'm wondering if there is a built-in way to determine when a BASIC program was last executed on a UniVerse system.  (I'm running v11.1.9 on Linux)  I worked on a different platform years ago that had a DICT item in the BP file that would return that info, but I haven't found anything like it on UniVerse.Thx

All,We have a large number of reports printed each day. Users will contact our admin staff to find out why a print job did not print. We get some reports that have a banner page with no other output or no records selected. We would like to identify what report was run and generated no or vague output. Is there some way to modify the banner/separator page to include the report name? Is there a way to force Retrieve to print the headings when no records are selected? I think one way would be to pass the USEROPTS from the SETPTR command to a script grab that and try to keep a list of print jobs and the USEROPTS file in a file somewhere, but it seems really convoluted.

Is there any way one can use the Update Editor to insert an SVM ^m  =  am  ;  ^v  =  vm  ;  ^??? = svm (^  =  <ctrl>)

Hi All,Given an item ID such as 001000885$25BIW06GN-1$16407 and a dictionary item such as:001 S002 0003 MONTH004005006007 A;0(G2$1]DMA]T1,3):"-":0(G2$1]DY)008 G2$1009 R010 8A LIST or SORT on the dictionary item returns the correct value "Dec-2012".  However, when this same dictionary item is passed to the SS connective as in LIST ... SS MONTH "01/01/2012" "31/12/2012"  UNITS ..., the value returned is garbage as in "-"  and the totals a single column of all zeroes (we use European date format).Have I structured the dictionary item incorrectly or is there a bug in the SS handling of the dictionary item?Vincent

My program was simply opening a file using the name from the VOC @ID and then doing a STATUS.I get the same error doing a LIST from TCL.     >CT VOC TKEYCODE     0001 F     0002 TKEYCODE     0003 D_TKEYCODE     >LIST TKEYCODE     Invalid Partblock for "TKEYCODE".     Invalid or missing Partblock for "TKEYCODE".     Invalid Partblock for "TKEYCODE".     Invalid or missing Partblock for "TKEYCODE".     Unable to open "TKEYCODE" file.The files exist on AIX:       -rwxrwxrwx 1 slice staff 17408 May 28 16:29 D_TKEYCODE     -rwxrwxrwx 1 slice staff 1024 Nov 23 2001 TKEYCODENot sure why it got this error?  The file is old and probably no longer in use, but in 20 years in MV I have never see this error???env:  AIX 7.2 running UniVerse 11.3.1​Thanks in advance for any insights.Nelson

I'm working with UniData 8.2.  I've written a utility that lets me view and treat an SQL table like it was a local UniData file with UniQuery type commands.It's been working fine.  But I am having an issue with one ODBC connection that sends back the rows but not the data for the columns.Has anyone seen this before?  Could it be some type of privilege setting?  I can get data back using an SQL manager tool using the same logon credentials.SQLFetch doesn't bring back any error messages, just no data.I am going from one domain to another, all within our intranet.Thoughts?

We run UV 11.2.5 on RHEL7 servers, and use UniRPC connections a lot.I have been looking for a way to automatically apply reduced priority to some UniRPC connections based on the connecting user id.I have tried creating a new 'conf' file in /etc/security/limits.d.These files get applied by the PAM limits module for new login connections, but when the UniRPC daemon validates the credentials of the in-coming connection it appears to not be running through the PAM modules so when the uvcs / defcs / uvserver session is launched using the supplied user credentials the resulting PID is running with the default priority.Does anyone know of a way to automatically have the launched uvcs / defcs / uvserver process use a non-default priority?

All,When I have no records selected in an INFORM report, the heading does not print. Users are asking the admin staff if a print job was printed. Is there a way I can force the heading to print if no records are selected, or is there a way I can place the report name in the Unix spooler banner page? I get a banner page with no records selected, but I think it is from the Unix spooler. Maybe set an environment variable to put into the banner?Jon

I am looking for recommendations of companies to run the upgrade of a Universe application currently running Universe 11.1.3 to most current Universe version.   The application is running on a Solaris 10 system so it would be upgraded to Solaris 11 but may also be re-platformed to Linux or AIX.  There is a small staff maintaining the application to consult.

Just wondering if there is a function for me to send a message to the runtime-errors file?  Trying to debug a program and if I could send a few notes to the runtime-errors file via a function call it would save me a few steps.ThanksCraig

Hi Everyone We want to make extensive use handheld terminals in our warehouse and Factory for point of activity transaction processing, with a goal to further enhance this and utilise Barcoding to reduce further the amount of manual keying required As there does not appear to be a version of SB Client that will operate natively on anything other than Windows can anyone suggest a handheld that will provide a screen large enough to accommodate SB Menus and also work with a decent touch screen that is not subject to "fat finger" syndrome we have be experimenting with Zebra TC520K android handheld with Velocity Android 2.0 TE terminal emulator. (VT100) this uses Telnet as its connection interface to the UV and SB applications however it does not provide easy Access to "F2" and "F3" keys which are used extensively within our current transaction processes So can anyone recommend a handheld that operates seamlessly with UV and SB applications that provides easy access to "F2" and "F3" functio

Sorry to ask a dumb question but I'm an old school character base programmer from the 80's and am having a great deal of trouble understanding the GUI languages. I've tried several books on JAVA but can't seem to make it work. SO, my question is this: Can anyone suggest a way that I can add a GUI front end to my Unidata database in a language that I can understand?

G'day all   Been having some issues with getting the SSL certificate to work with MVS toolkit. We’ve had it working once before, with a massive amount of tweaking within the certificate to get it working. This time we’re moving to a wildcard certificate and despite going through the same steps (and the same tweaking) we’re having no luck.   Has anyone got a wildcard SSL certificate working with MVS Toolkit? And do you have a consistent procedure to get this to work? =================   The main thing is the consistency – so we can do the same thing each time and get it working without stuffing around with it.

I have a need to do a 400ms sleep in a Unidata program.  Is it possible?

Hi. We have several windows  servers with a lot of big dump files in a universe subfolder called "minidump". Is there a way to avoid  this kind of dumps, in order to prevent disk filling? Thanks in advance. p.d.

Good Evening all. hopefully the collective minds on here will help with a conundrum i have We have for several years been using Watchguard for our Firewalls and the remote users happily instigated  a Windows PPTP VPN connection and used their SB Client to access our Universe DB However, in light of a security review and the current increased security threats that blight our everyday activity, we have now deployed Cisco 1140 firewalls (in place of the Watchguards) and rolled out Cisco Anyconnect to enable the new VPN connection and remove the Windows PPTP security issues This has created a few issues in that some of the remote users intermittently lose their SB Client Telnet Connection and leave a dead session on the server. Not only is this tiresome for the users it could potentially lead to data loss. We did not have this issue with the Windows VPN connected to the WatchguardsSo my question is does anyone else out there use SB Client (Telnet) via an Cisco Anyconnect managed VPN /

Hi,I am using UV 11.3.2 on Linux. I have 2 questions about the new NOW(), TODATE(), TOTIME(), @TZ, etc functionality1.I am using BDT 4.4.1The toolkit does not recognize the new functions/vars for syntax coloring, but shows it as errors. How can I fix this?2.It seems I cannot use TODATE() and TOTIME() in i-descriptors.​​ Is this correct? Will support be added?regards,Ivar

Environ:  UV 11.2.5 on RHEL7I noticed today that when I run 'LIST.READU'  if the locked item ID is longer than 63 characters I see the following The Item ID is truncated visually at the 63rd character The output does not stop at the end of the page After capturing the output via wIntegrate I noticed that the 64th character is actually a control char (so far I have observed char(3), char(4) and char(14) as the truncating character).I also tested using the unix command 'list_readu', as well as the 'LIST.READU INTERNAL' variation.All produced the same result.So is this normal behaviour for the command when dealing with longer Item ID's?Is this as a result of the lock table truncating the ID, or is it just a reporting problem?Is there any significance to the character value at the 64 position in the ItemID?

I attended the last MV Roadmap session, & it was mentioned that MV BASIC for Visual studio would be released at the end of March.   I would be very interested to try it out, once it is released, so can someone from Rocket please advise once it is available, thanks!MARY MULLANE
